I hope they get Hubbard on the practice squad. He seemed to make a lot of plays in training camp and had a touchdown last night.

Surprised at Elzy this early...White must be OK for Thursday.

Think they're trying to fly a few under the radar for PS?

Hm, I remember Michael82 raving about Means. Wondering if one or two of those guys are trying to be sneaked to the PS.

VERY surprised with Hubbard. Must be the discipline issue.

My other question is... It's 80 that they need to get down to... Could we see a surprise cut this early? Seems odd to save 1 cut until the deadline, especially when the other LS is still on the roster.

So much for Loyce Means having a good camp...

Alright, who forgot how to count? Buddy??:fogey:

Can't believe they cut a WR, and it was Hubbard instead of Martin? Interesting...

LOL - new post states they are indeed down to 80....

Bills trim six from roster
The Bills got a head start Sunday in reducing their roster to the required 80 player limit by 4 pm Tuesday releasing six players. DB Rajric Coleman, RB Anthony Elzy, P Reid Forrest, WR Paul Hubbard...

They know enough about Hubbard, one way or the other now. It's possible he may make the PS.
The likes of Martin, will get a small chance to show something. In respect of this coaching staff, they probably would like a little more time to evaluate him as best they can.

I'm hoping that Naaman Roosevelt makes the team, he's one of the players that I want to get his jersey since he played for UB. I'm not buying a jersey yet though not until I know who will be on the team LOL!

What is this "sneak on to the PS" BS?? If you think there is one guy under contract in the NFL that another team doesn't know about then you are sadly mistaking.

And does anybody think the Bills don't know who the other 28 that are going to get cut? At this point, guys are fighting for the final five or so spots and the PS. The Bills could announce the top 48 tomorrow and skip the charade of the final preseason game.
